Chapter 745: A Good Start

"Great chance, long ball from Toni Kroos!"

"Luis Suarez!"

Tens of thousands of fans in the entire Glory Stadium looked up and saw on the big screen, on the green football field, Toni Kroos made a precise long pass from the backcourt, and quickly passed the ball from the front of his own penalty area to the Half-time to Bayern Munich.

Almost at the moment he passed the ball, Suarez quickly sprinted past Dante.

When the Brazilian central defender reacted and wanted to turn around and catch up, Suarez had already left him far behind.

But there is more than one Dante in Bayern Munich's defense.

"Jerome Boateng returns!"

The two quickly competed for speed in Bayern Munich's half. Jerome Boateng did not lose to Suarez at all, and even used his strong body to run against the Uruguayan striker.

But when everyone was worried about the contest between Suarez and Boateng, suddenly a figure flashed in front of him.

I saw that Bayern Munich goalkeeper Kraft did not know when he had rushed out of the penalty area.

"ah!"

All the Saints fans in Glory Square let out an exclamation.

Because Suarez faced Boateng and Kraft, he had no chance at all.

But just when everyone thought it was going to be over, Kraft chose to head the ball out.

At this moment, everyone realized that he couldn't use his hands!

According to the rules, after the goalkeeper rushes out of the penalty area, he cannot use his hands!

Kraft also realized that his move out of the penalty area was dangerous, so as soon as he cleared the ball, he turned around and ran back to the goal as soon as he landed.

But after all, he used his head, and the ball for clearance failed to fall far.

And just when the ball was about to land, I followed Suarez and rushed forward, but the speed was relatively slow. Ibrahimovic, who fell behind, just rushed into the 30-meter area of ​​Bayern Munich. .

As soon as I saw the ball fly out,

Immediately accelerated and rushed up.

"Ibrahimovic!"

I don't know who shouted such a sentence, and then, I heard a bang.

I saw the Swedish center facing the ball and volleying directly!

Kraft ran back to the goal very fast, but no matter how fast, could he be faster than the ball?

When he ran back to the small penalty area, Ibrahimovic's volley had already sent the ball into the bottom of the net!

shocked!

Everyone was shocked at this moment!

It was less than ten minutes into the game, and Bayern Munich made such a stupid mistake!

Kraft was stunned, staring blankly at the ball bouncing in the goal, feeling as if he had fallen into an ice cellar.

He started to get scared!

He knew very well how reckless, even stupid, the attack just now was!

Because even if he doesn't attack, with Jerome Boateng's advantage just now, it will be difficult for Suarez to create much threat, but his attack gave Zlatan Ibrahimovic a chance to hit an empty goal .

Jerome Boateng, who chased back to the goal, fished out the ball from inside the goal, and shot directly into the sky, venting his anger without even looking at Kraft.

And the Bayern Munich fans in the entire Allianz Arena seemed to wake up suddenly, booing and even cursing, obviously expressing their dissatisfaction with Kraft!

"Stupid, this is a foolish mistake!"

"Since Kraft became Bayern Munich's main goalkeeper, the youth goalkeeper has been controversial. He has performed well, but he often makes some weird mistakes, which is difficult to reassure."

"This time, his nerve knife broke out again, and it was still in such a crucial semi-final of the Champions League!"

"One to zero, Bayern Munich gave Southampton a precious away goal because of a botched goalkeeper error in the opening eight minutes."

"Guardiola also seemed very dissatisfied. Such a mistake should not be. As the head coach, he should have calculated more, but such a mistake by the goalkeeper is probably not within his calculation range!"

p>In the air, the voice of the TV commentator is spreading.

On the big screen, Southampton players celebrated wildly, especially Zlatan Ibrahimovic, who even roared past Guardiola with cheers and gave coach Bielsa a tight hug.

This is a demonstration!

Ibrahimovic is going to use this method to tell Guardiola, I am not incompetent, but you are not qualified to use me!

Outside the big screen, tens of thousands of Saints fans were so excited that they sang and shouted loudly.

The sky above the entire Glory Square was filled with cheers from fans.

One to zero!

In just eight minutes of the opening, they took the lead by a goal!

Is there a better, more ideal start than this?

…………

…………

The moment Yang Huan scored a goal against Zlatan Ibrahimovic, his whole body seemed to get an electric shock. He jumped up from his seat, clenched his fists, and made a gesture of celebration full of excitement.

"Great, wonderful!"

"Well done, Zlatan!"

"No, volley, great!"

"This goal is too critical. The first shot in the audience scored the goal. It's a good start!"

Compared with the appreciation of Southampton's management, the senior leaders of Bayern Munich seem a little lonely.

The interim chairman of the club, Herbert Heiner, pointed at the stadium angrily, "What did Kraft do? Such an important game, such a stupid mistake at the beginning? Doesn't he know this? How important is the game?"

The chairman of Adidas is visibly pissed off, isn't it?

When Yang Huan sat down again, Beckenbauer also took up the conversation.

"Actually, for this ball, Kraft's mistakes were really stupid, but before that, our team's problems were also very serious!"

"That's right!" Rummenigge took the words, "Southampton's defense is very targeted. Franck Ribery was fighting alone on the wing just now. After the ball was intercepted, no one responded immediately. Toni Kroos presses and presses."

"It can be said that Toni Kroos' precise long pass played a key role. Even if Kraft makes no mistakes, the contest between Suarez and Boateng is still unknown!"

When a superstar at the level of Suarez will suddenly give you a surprise, it is completely unpredictable.

The field is changing rapidly, Boateng and Suarez are one-on-one, who dares to say that the victory is guaranteed?

But when it comes to Toni Kroos, Rummenigge is a little embarrassed.

They were the ones who personally sent Toni Kroos to Southampton at the beginning. Although they got a sky-high price of 60 million euros, no matter from which point of view, it was a very successful transaction.

However, watching the players I have trained help their opponents score goals at their own home court, the feeling is really embarrassing and embarrassing.

"Everyone is now focusing on Kraft's mistakes, but Guardiola should be sober enough to notice the team's current problems, otherwise, Southampton will continue to create threats!" Beckenbauer's earnest analysis road.

But obviously, as the game restarted, Guardiola, as Bayern Munich's management said, realized the core problem and immediately adjusted the team.

For example, put Schweinsteiger in a higher position.

Don't underestimate this adjustment, just move forward like this, Bayern Munich's offensive in the frontcourt will be much smoother, and there will be a support point for Ribery and Robben's two flanks.

But the offense has improved, but it doesn't mean it can create threats.

Southampton continued to adopt the tactics at the beginning of the game, without the slightest pursuit of the victory, and did not intend to compete with Bayern Munich for possession of the ball and for more initiative in the game.

On the other hand, Bayern Munich continued to control the game and continued to have a considerable advantage in possession, but there was no way to create a threat in front of Southampton's goal. This is indeed quite depressing.

It also made Beckenbauer and others sitting on the chairman's stand shake their heads uncontrollably.

"We were too slow!" sighed Beckenbauer.

"Excessive pursuit of ball possession led to our passing being too stable, and our advancement lacked speed. Finally, when we advanced to the 30-meter area of ​​Southampton, the Saints have already organized the defense of the three lines!"

Speaking of this, Beckenbauer sighed again, but this time the sigh contained admiration.

"Belsa's team is too well organized defensively, with strong tactical discipline, and every player is fighting for the team, so they can be equipped with a double midfielder combination like Toni Kroos and Modric. If you switch to another team, you must have a strong defensive midfielder."

"The other two central defenders are also very good. Harvey Martinez is the commander in chief of the defense. Varane's performance in the defense is hard to believe. He has just turned 21 years old. On the other hand, our defense, Dan Obviously not suitable for Guardiola's tactics!"

Rummenigge also nodded frequently, thinking that what Beckenbauer said was very reasonable.

"We are a group of people sitting in the stands, and the onlookers are clear, but on the pitch, Guardiola may not see clearly, and he also needs to think more, but we must make adjustments in the transition between offense and defense!"

"As Franz said, when switching from defense to offense, the speed of advancement was too slow, but the problem of switching from offense to defense was even more serious. We failed to grab the ball back in the midfield at the first time, and even failed to give the ball back in time. The opponent is pressing."

"Southampton's double defensive midfielders and central midfielders have the ability to plan counterattacks immediately after stealing the ball, so they will launch long passes immediately after stealing the ball and play behind the defense. We will be very dangerous."

Hearing this, Herbert Heiner was a little worried, "Don't we have other effective solutions?"

Beckenbauer and Rummenigge looked at each other, both a little helpless.

"There is always a solution to everything, but if this is solved, other problems will definitely arise, so the key is to see how Guardiola views this game, as well as his pre-match preparations, arrangements and training."

Beckenbauer has also been a head coach, and nodded in agreement: "Southampton's counterattack must have been practiced, and it was hard practice. Otherwise, Toni Kroos would not have gone to Suarez immediately. Brahimovic would not be so coincidental to plug in to form the second attacking echelon!"

"Guardiola is in trouble now. He is one goal behind at home. He must attack. If he doesn't attack, he can't do it. But now there is a problem with the offense. He can't penetrate into the hinterland of Southampton to create a threat."

"On the contrary, it is ourselves. The higher the ball possession rate, the more mistakes, and the greater the probability of being seized by Southampton to counterattack!"

"Then, give up possession?" suggested Herbert Hainer.

Unexpectedly, when he said this, not only Rummenigge and Beckenbauer showed helpless and embarrassed expressions, but even Yang Huan almost burst into laughter in his heart.

It should be said that Beckenbauer and Rummenigge were right in their analysis.

Seeing the game now, Yang Huan also has to feel that Bielsa's targeted tactics are indeed extremely sharp, almost hitting Bayern Munich's Achilles heel and weakness.

At the same time, it also created a big problem for Guardiola.

If they can no longer solve the predicament of weak offense, the more they have the ball, the more dangerous they will be.

But if you don't control the ball, you will die faster!
